Recently, David F wrote to me and said: “My mother passed away in 2008 and I was left among other things, a 1941 authentic Brown Derby menu. Her family went on a 3 week vacation out to the west cost to visit family etc. Along the way, my grandmother wrote a diary about the trip etc.. She mentioned eating at the Brown Derby and asked the manager if she could take home a menu. There is a paper clip attached to the menu holding that days “special”. The menu is in excellent shape. It is really neat.. The diary mentions seeing some Hollywood stars on the street.”

So I wrote back and asked him if he could send some photos that I’d love to see them. And he did! And he told me he was okay with me sharing it here. Thanks David!
